The 19th Amendment to the United States Constitution, ratified in 1920, granted women the right to vote. This amendment marked a significant victory in the women’s suffrage movement, ensuring that gender could not be used as a basis for denying the right to vote. The amendment states, "The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of sex."
